Cuvée des Jacobins (Bockor Brouwerij)
I ordered a glass of this lambic at the Trion Tavern after the Brew Haven Brewfest concluded.
General Thoughts
Look and Smell: It smelled as sour as I thought it would taste. I had a very dark red tint. It was very effervescent,the bubbles were visible throughout, bubbling up to a thin layer of bubbles on the top.
Taste: It was as sour as it smelled. A sour cherry taste. It wasn't too strong for me to taste the malt. A very nice lambic!
From the Bockor site:
The beer Cuvée des Jacobins is unblended old lambic, aged for 18 months or more. It has a robust character but is beautiful and sophisticated with a full body and overtones of vanilla, dried cherry, stone fruit and cocoa. It is a complex, beautiful sour beer.
